[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On the other hand, UVA funnels in dozens of geniuses from TJ every year, and all of those kids are more capable than any kid at Duke.[/quote]
PP really thinks that TJ is the only school in this country with STEM geniuses, with its whopping one Regeneron finalist in the last three years![/quote]

TJ still gets the best talent of any high school and they flock to UVA. If Duke was better why wouldn't more kids from TJ go to Duke?[/quote]

Duke is $91,000+ a year. UVA is $37,716 for in-state. We didn’t even consider Duke a possibility.  No merit aid; no financial aid. MC donut hole.[/quote]

Yep. Reality for many UMC-MC families in the DMV.  Over $150-175 HHI (which is pretty normal here), you will get ZERO aid.  If you made less, you could go to Princeton or Hopkins or one of the many 'need blind" schools absolutely free.  Otherwise, you can expect to pay ~$730,000 to put 2 kids through a private like Duke or an Ivy or BC or Georgetown, etc.  And lest we forget that price is for today.  It will be even higher in 5-10 years.  A year of tuition will be crossing $100k in the near future.
